Big fan of Sony Its a kind request to Sony, please start making compact size models with at least 888 fast processor or gen 1 & 2 but should be compact size less than 150mm tall, if samsung can make a compact size with fast processor (S23) why you can't? Anything possible for u, remember my advice key of success..

After what was the worst phone i ever owned (Xperia 5 iv) i decided to give this a chance due to extremely limited choices for flagship tier phones with sd card slots and/or headphone jack.
And i have to say that this is exactly what I wanted.
No longer do you need oven mitts due to the phone overheating like Xperia 5 iv had.
Or no longer do apps simply die as soon as you place them in the background
Only issue I have compared to Xperia 5 IV is the size of the phone.
The narrow 21:9 aspect ratio does help with coping with the 6,5 inch tablet screen, but the Xperia 5 IV's 6,1 was so much nicer to handle.
But overall 5/5 phone and i can see myself hold onto it for the next few years easily.
Let's see if 2025 or 2026 has any worthy successors for this phone.

I hope there will be more 6.5 inch smartphones with 13:6 or 19:5:9 aspect ratio and good optimisation aside from just having great or flagship performance.

vrvly, 16 Jul 20231V for vlogging , 1XXX will be for adults only.
But jokes... more1) xz2 premium tech was very expensive and had some downsides not possible to overcome. Fusion does not work with frame stacking. Also there is no way to pair fusion with burst more. Nobody knows if power of 8g2 of newer version of that ISP could handle this now.
2) that tech is not completely out of plans. Could come back or not.
3) flagships are made to behave like A9, not 7r . You cannot do what xperia does with high MP bayer count unless you use lots of DRAM inside cmos, that tech is too expensive, too power hungry, decreases DR by 1 stop and has some crosstalk issues. You can see that 7r5 sensor is only capable of 61MP@10fps@12bit while A1 sensor can do 50MP at more than 200fps@12bit( cam does not this option obviously)
4) high MP count introduces tons of rolling shutter for videos. Also without DRAM, readout is too slow.
5) A1 sensor is 2,5x the speed of imx557 ( mark 2 to 4). This with 20x the size and 4x resolution.
6) lenses on phones would need to be way better to use bayer 50mp , one of reasons nokia 808 had default 5mp downsampling from 38mp

I have the Xpia 1V since june the 5 and the experience has been top notch specially the design is awsome and the texture at back is very greppy and handsome and the main and ultra wide cam are excellent . The zoome cam 85-125 is not bad but needs some tweaksthe pictures i took with thatlens are abit too soft so here Sony should tweak the software abit other then that Sony has done a good job .

1V for vlogging , 1XXX will be for adults only.
But jokes aside, I really miss the days of xz2 premium(or something like that I got home) which could go up to 50.000 iso. Like A7S, very useful at night.
Sony is however crippled by not being leader in sensor size and apertures. I mean all sensors, not just main camera.
Why can't there be xperia A7s or xperia A7R? They got it under same roof lol.

I have it for a month, I bought it in Taiwan for the computex, everything that is the camera and video is a priceless section, but it still needs a lot of polish to the software, it has freezing or lag problems, at first I had problems with the superpocision of different app and menus, etc. they have corrected them, But I think it lacks a few months of polishing, before I had the OPPO ACE2 Evangelion, and this feels worse in general use
